For whatever reason people here and on Reddit will tell you that you need to have Jellyfin pass through five VPNs, otherwise nasty things will happen. Meanwhile the actual devs suggests simply setting up a reverse proxy, which you can do in two lines with Caddy: https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/post-install/networking/re...

Reverse proxy itself will do barely any defense, what you need in combination is an authgate (authentik, authelia), and here we are moving from "simple reverse proxy" to fun weekend activity and then some getting it to work as expected. + it kills the app auth flow, so only web interface is suitable for this.
